Car LED Light Strips?

[Katieasaur]

Has anyone ever tried using the, much cheaper, LED light strips for cars on their frog tanks? They are waterproof and stuff so I was wondering if it would be possible?

how many lumens and what color temp? if they are close to what the comercial fixtures are, then they may be a good alternative.

Those aren't the car LEDs but they're a "lightbulb" like we're used to thinking about lightbulbs.

The one at the link is 450 lumens & color temp 2800K.

The nice thing about LEDs is that they don't contain the mercury found in CFLs
